THE WORD "CHAPEL" It Comes From Latin and Originally Meant Cope or CanoPY. The word "ehaper comes from the low Latin capella, a cope or canopy, and was applied to a recess or chapel attached to the altar. Used originally of tbe place wbere the cappa or cope of St. Martin was preserved, the word came in the eighth century to 'dietary any sanctuary where holy relice were kept and thence a con- secrated building connected with a church or cathedral. At this period also domeetic oratories and placea of worship for such corporate bodies as colleges began to be called chapels, • Apart from its present day meaning, as applied to any place of worsiiip wleich is not a parish church, such as a chapel of ease or a nonconformist chapel, the word denotes the eceleel- astical staff of a soyereign, the sacred office recited by the pope with his household and the working staff of a printing office, because the first one in England was set up by Caxton in Westmiuster abbey, Water. ••CotOrs.
